Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is hitting back at those who criticized his trip to the site of a toxic train derailment in Ohio.

Speaking to CNN, he said his visit to East Palestine had nothing to do with former President Trump going there as well.

Buttigieg was so upset by the suggestion that he used some choice language to make his point.

He insisted "we were already going to go." Despite Buttigieg pushing back, he also admitted he should've gone to Ohio earlier than he did.
